And it sure was a laugh, In Melbourne they have the convention at the Tennis Centre with most of vic JW going there. I think round the time i got baptised there were around 14,000 in attendance.
Theres footage of the convention, there footage of us volunteers early in the morning making sandwhiches in our gorgeous cloth hats and aprons, and then theres my baptisim,
sure brought back a lot of memories

Hi Es!
Wow! I'm sure that was a flood of memories for you. I haven't seen my baptism video since right after I was "dunked". I slipped during it! At least they didn't have to put me under twice. I never understood why if like your toe came out of the water they had to do it again.
C'mon, Es, aren't you gonna post it, so we can all snicker view it, teehee?

Hey wait that's my new line! If the elders manage to figure out a way to prove I got baptized I'm gonna tell them that my toe came out of the water I was just to embarrassed to say anything at the time! So my baptism is invalid!
The reason that it's important is they believe that baptism isn't symbolic it's actually resulting in the forgiveness of your sins! That's why if you can get into a convention and get dipped again your automatically reinstated! HA what a Freaking joke this religion is!
Would be fun to do! Just make sure and have someone take a picture!
well then mine is void heheheh one of my foot slightly came up its a normal reaction, i found it was anyway he kind of looked at my foot coming up but didnt really do anything bout it.

G'day es, It'd be fun to see pics. Is there the remotest chance of having the video copied to DVD? Don't throw the bugga out whatever you do (it'll get even funnier with age). cheers
I can top that. I'll see if I can find the photo of me in the paper while getting baptised. WA Sunday Times. Readership of 1.2 million including everybody I ever met. Talk about dorkfest.
my foot flew up when I was getting dipped too....I was dipped again... Double dipped....

Boy, you got a whole baptism video! LOL I don't even think I have a picture. Fine by me, though. The whole experience was a nightmare of stupidity.
Now that you've left the JWs, you can tape over it with something more interesting. How about an R rated movie?
